15 Topics[FIXED] Need someone from Edge team answer why Edge mobile is using Chromium version 77 ?
Edge on Android is now on the latest version, the same as Edge desktop, everything is new and up to date. https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/discussions/new-edge-canary-mobile-version-available-now-updated-chromium/m-p/2275690 I'm really concerned about security patches and updates that latest Chromium gets (which is version 86 as of this moment) but Edge mobile (Android) is using Chromium 77 which is almost 1 year old! not only that, each Chromium version has more features compared to the previous one but Edge mobile is missing all of that. why is this happening? why Edge Android is not using up to date version of Chromium?1.1KViews4likes1CommentEdge Canary installs itself in 2 places
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\EdgeCore\91.0.852.0 C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge SxS\Application\91.0.852.0 user profile directory is only in "Edge SxS" folder though. I'm not sure what "EdgeCore" folder and a copy of the browser in there is for.1.7KViews0likes0CommentsWhat is the new prerenderer implementation for <link rel=prerender> instead of NoStatePrefetch ?
Microsoft Edge Version 89.0.726.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) this new flag: Prerender2 Enables the new prerenderer implementation for <link rel=prerender> instead of NoStatePrefetch.–Mac, Windows #enable-prerender2 I'm curious to know what the new prerenderer implementation is that replaces NoStatePrefetch? couldn't find any information about it in here https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2018/07/nostate-prefetch also, in the same link, it says "Fetch the first result in Google Search results" does prefetch/prerender in Edge Fetch the first result in Bing search results? johnjansen5.7KViews0likes2CommentsHow is Smart Copy able to capture both screenshot and meta data at the same time with only 1 copy?
I'm trying this on EdgeVersion 89.0.722.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) I use Smart Copy to capture a part of a web page, then I paste it into Notepad and I get meta data like texts. then without copying anything else to the clipboard, I open up Paint 3D and do another paste there, this time I get the picture of that part of the web page I captured using Smart Copy! how is this even possible? 1 copy task and 2 different outputs? when I use Smart Copy and then press Win + V to view the clipboard, I only see text, not picture, but after pressing Ctrl + V in Paint 3D i get the picture and after pressing Ctrl + V in Notepad I get text. I'm not complaining though, this is actually very brilliant and smart.1.4KViews3likes5CommentsQQ5: edge devs, what is the maximum bookmarks amount before you crash or create problems?
QUESTION (QQ): 5 you maybe should know about the 25-30k problem of icloud sync, the 30-40k problem of different chromium browsers when we want to import bookmarks, now the question is "devs, have you tested such things, do you know where your limits are?" Same for history, what is the amount of history before you create problems? i hope you avoid the 200-300k limit like apple. is huge annoying apple deletes history. you should be able to keep even 2mio of links.2.1KViews1like2CommentsQQ2: Which Edge do you prefer to use and why? Dev, Business, Normal, Beta, Canary?
QUESTION (QQ): 2 I don't answer, since you probably know that. I'm still the type of user that prefers manual update. So i wait 2-8 months and then i update it, so that i can see big changes too. So i'm not a canary user, even if i use canary. What about you?1.3KViews0likes2Comments[Solved] How do I properly add a wildcard domain to Edge tracking prevention exception list?
Found the solution, which was there in front of my eyes all this time but I didn't pay enough attention. Edge shows the correct syntax[*.]example.com so entering[*.]live.com is acceptable and fixes the issue! lesson learned: always pay attention to the info on the screen.12KViews1like3CommentsNeed explanation for this feature | Microsoft Defender SmartScreen Navigation Throttle
